Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

"In my life, I have looked exquisite and beautiful, and have been sought after by everyone."

"But, I know better than anyone else that from beginning to end, I am just a chess piece."

"The day you no longer have any value is the day you will be abandoned."

"Even the Golden Cicada Auction can achieve their goal of preserving them at the expense of me at any time."

Yunxi didn't pay attention to Zhou Zheng's expression change, lowered her head and whispered.

Her voice was slow and her face was calm, but there were obvious ripples in the deepest part of her eyes.

As the person in charge of the Jin Chan Auction, she knows the rules very well.

If she were a man, maybe she would still have a chance in this life.

But unfortunately, Yunxi is a girl.

Moreover, she is an absolutely beautiful woman.

In this kind of ending, it can only be reduced to a tool in Jin Chan's auction, used to reach some kind of deal with the royal family.

Zhou Zheng's heart sank slightly, he knew that this was the so-called unspoken rule, the so-called power and rent-seeking!

There are only three ways for any huge organization to continue in this era of supremacy of imperial power.

One is to submit to the imperial power and become a tool in the hands of the imperial power.

The second is that he is absolutely tyrannical, so tyrannical that the imperial power will be afraid of breaking up the relationship easily.

The third is cooperation to maintain the relationship between the two parties in some way.

Obviously, Jin Chan Auction is the third way.

And this so-called cooperation means that every once in a while, beautiful women like Yunxi will be sent to the royal family.

This kind of operation is no longer strange.

The same is true for Yanchun Tower in Kyoto.

However, what surprised Zhou Zheng was that such a result was undoubtedly the best destination for most women.

But Yunxi didn't seem to think so.

"In one year at most, the Golden Cicada Auction will give me to the royal family."

With a bitter smile, Yunxi's eyes dimmed.

Over the years, she has worked hard to bring the Golden Cicada Auction to a new level.

It even expanded the Black Triangle Territory and the Great Yuan Daxia market, bringing a lot of profits to the Jin Chan Auction.

I thought I could use my abilities to prove my worth to the Golden Chan Auction, but I didn't expect that I couldn't escape my end in the end.

Thinking of this, despite Yunxi's always tough temperament, her face turned a little pale at this time.

Zhou Zheng didn't speak, just looked at Yunxi quietly.

"So, this kind of fate is not what I want."

"I want to take a gamble and live for myself."

She clenched her slender palms into fists and slowly raised her head. Yunxi's eyes were full of stubbornness.

Live for yourself once! ?

As he kept chanting these words in his mouth, Zhou Zheng's heart also changed slightly.

In this world, men have always been superior to women. Where do women have the right to live for themselves?

There are a few women who dare to say such things.

"Is this why you desperately want to follow me?"

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Zheng felt quite moved inside.

"That's right!"

"When you stood up for Gong Tan, I knew that maybe you were the only chance I could seize."

With a weak look on her face, Yunxi had never thought of relying on a man in her life.

She wanted to make her own path on her own.

But in the end, she realized that no matter how hard she tried, she could not turn the tide or change the world.

Until she met Zhou Zheng.

She saw the joy on Su Xun'er's face when she followed Zhou Zheng, which was unprecedented.

She saw Yun Yun acting like a little girl next to Zhou Zheng.

She also saw that Mu Qingwan could really show off her talents when standing next to Zhou Zheng!

So, she wanted to take a gamble!

Since Jin Chan Auction couldn't give her what she wanted, she would choose another Ming master!

"If that's all, with your intelligence, you should know that I have no reason to agree."

He stood with his hands behind his back, but Zhou Zheng's words were still full of indifference.

This world is far from as simple as it seems.

Even the imperial court cannot easily ignore the energy contained in the Jin Chan Auction, let alone Zhou Zheng.

If Yunxi really follows him, Zhou Zheng can almost be sure!

Jin Chan Auction will spare no effort to help the court deal with him!

Offending a giant for the sake of a woman is not a wise choice.

"Are you worried about me?"

Yunxi was not surprised by Zhou Zheng's indifferent response.

"How can I make you trust me completely?"

Her pretty eyebrows slightly furrowed and Yunxi gritted her teeth. She knew that the first step to truly follow Zhou Zheng was to gain Zhou Zheng's trust.

"I do not know."

"However, I heard that the most reliable way for a woman to make a man feel at ease is to completely hand over her body."

The corners of his mouth were raised, and Zhou Zheng's eyes became hot again.

Yun Xi is older than Zhou Zheng, but this does not affect Yun Xi's charm and enchantment at all.

These extremely obvious words made Yunxi's face darken, and then she involuntarily stepped back a little.

She tried her best to control her emotions, but her eyes were still a little dark.

"you......"

The words came to my mouth, but they still didn't come out.

"Except for this, I can agree to all other conditions."

After hesitating again and again, Yunxi rearranged her words.

"Other conditions?"

"Do you think I care?"

Shaking his head, Zhou Zheng still stared at Yunxi with burning eyes.

Whether it's money, status or status, Yunxi can't give them these.

Hearing Zhou Zheng's straightforward words, Yunxi closed her eyes slightly, and a trace of tears fell from the corner of her eyes.

Could it be that Zhou Zheng and other men are still the same?

"It's okay if I don't follow you!"

"Do me a favor and get me out of the Golden Cicada Auction."

After a long time, Yunxi gritted her teeth and raised her head again.

"You don't seem to understand the current situation."

Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.

What the hell are you asking of yourself? !

"In exchange for conditions!"

"I can give you a satisfactory return."

Yunxi quickly adjusted her mentality.

Just this sentence made Zhou Zheng feel a little funny, a satisfactory reward! ?

What kind of reward can a woman who is not even willing to give away her own body give? ?

Could it be that he really thought that he was a little man who had never seen the world?

"Your mother-in-law's secret!"

"It's also Emperor Tianjing who has been tracking down Xin Mi for so many years!"

Taking a deep breath, Yunxi looked serious.

Mother concubine? !

Upon hearing these two words, Zhou Zheng's originally indifferent expression suddenly froze.

Then his expression also changed dramatically.

He stepped forward suddenly, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

A sense of oppression enveloped him, and his whole aura became a little chaotic!

"Say!"
